Size guide
What size do you take in your every day shoes (eg. sneakers, heels)?
Please read through the full size info in the "size & fit information" tab on the product page. We design different styles to suit different foot types (eg narrow, wide) so each style has a unique fit. We offer comprehensive fit info and size suggestions based on over 10 years of footwear experience and thousands of customer's data and feedback.
General Size Guide - Womens Shoes
Check out all your shoes and if most are one size, you will more than likely be that size in she wear.
Then read our sizing/fit suggestions on the style you are interested in, as we guide you with our expert tips for peace of mind purchasing (eg if you have a half size, size up or down). Keep in mind if your shoes are a man's fit - that's very different sizing!
If you have a mix of shoe sizes, you can also measure the length of your foot and compare your measurements with below. Measuring sounds easy but there are a few tricks on making sure you measure correctly. Our quick video will show you how. Or you can reach out to our team for expert advice - we know shoes!

CRAFTED BY WOMEN. FOR WOMEN.
In 2013, after a nail-through-the-foot accident on a building site, our founder Stacey set out on a mission to find a pair of good fitting women's work boots. Shocked to discover only men's or "unisex" options that were heavy and uncomfortable, Stacey took matters into her own hands and created she wear's first range of safety boots tailored specifically for women.
Fast forward to 2025, and we've expanded that same commitment to all day comfort and support into a full range of women's work shoes and functional, everyday lifestyle footwear plus a line of accessories.
So, whether you're an engineer, nurse, tradie, chef, gardener, retail worker, or just want (or need!) supportive shoes .. we've got your back ♥

- GNGeorgia N.Verified BuyerReviewingExplores Seconds sale: womens limited edition lifestyle bootI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoSeconds??? I would say more like firsts!!
I bought these boots for work, I’m in a warehouse doing despatch so I didn’t mind that they were an absolute steal in the seconds sale. They arrived to my home very quickly once ordered, and I was bloody amazed to say the least at the beautiful quality considering they had been classed as seconds. Could not find one fault in these boots. Thought I would have to wear them in as I have with the three pairs I already own, I did not in fact have to wear them in at all. Chucked em straight on and Bobs me uncle, most comfy pair I’ve ever owned. The Navy colour is so nice, they go with everything and I bloody love em as usual, I wear them all the time.

I bought a pair of Explores Lifestyle boots and can't believe how comfortable they are.
I have been wanting a pair of boots for years but have been unable to find a pair that fit well due to some chronic foot problems I have including:
- cavus foot (very high arches). This issue makes finding any sort of shoe an issue for me as they rub on the dorsum of my foot.
- nerve damage on the dorsum of my right foot which makes it sensitive to pressure (made worse by my high arches as every shoe pushes my foot to the roof of the shoe).
- intermetatarsal bursitis in right foot. This part of my foot is constantly swollen and sore.
Even though pull-on boots aren't recommended for people with high arches, I spoke to Bronwyn and she convinced me to come instore and try them on as "you never know".
Thank goodness I did. Not only are these boots the most comfortable boot I've tried on, but they look great too. I'll be leaving Brisbane in the new year to travel Oz and these boots will be getting a LOT of wear.
So even if you have high arches I recommend trying on the Explores boots. If they work for me, they might work for you.
All I need now is a pair of flip flops and a pair of sandshoes and my travel wardrobe will be complete.

I have this colour pair as my 'good boots' 😆, love the blue.
Definitely my favourite style. Wish they would come back in some of the original colour ways, so I can get a new pair for work.
I find the styles with caps put too much pressure on my arthritic toes.
